Strange Brick problems

Wii Problems Please help

Ok my wii was on 3.2U with priiloader .29 my wii was perfect until my step father put in wii sports resort without loading it with gecko and updated it. I thought it would be ok since i had priiloader installed but when i turned on my wii and all i see is a black screen. My wii turns off but i just get a black screen when i turn it back on and it doesn't even say file read error or anything. When i try to load priiloader manually by holding the reset button all i get is the same black screen so i have given up and i need help. I do not think it is a brick because it doesn't say cant load system menu or anything like that and i can turn it off please help me..

Sounds like a full brick. Only way to unbrick is if you had bootmii/boot2 installed. If not, then you may have to send it Nintendo. Try to see if you can use the SaveMiiFrii trick with a gamecube controller, although it is unlikely it will work.

If your wii is old enough to support bootmii in boot2 you can also flash the nand using an infectus chip and get bootmii in there.
Then you can recover your wii too. I have done it many times and so have others
